I heard that Sylvester Stallone wrote The Expendables with The Alex in mind. He had to keep it realistic though and split The Alex's abilities into multiple characters. Stallone thought that critics would pan it for being too far-fetched if he just had one character effing everyone up.

I certainly don't believe it. They wouldn't have had Jonathan Banks doing all those post-death media interviews if he were alive. Also, this isn't the type of show to have a surprise reveal that a character somehow survived a shot to the gut like that.

I was just amused by the shear number of people who thought he'd survive.

was a great episode. leaves me with two questions though. when mike shook his head no was he saying that walt didnt kill gus or was he saying that walt wasnt kidding? another question i have is, why didnt mike kill walt? i cant imagine the gun he was holding was unloaded. seems like no one thinks walt's new boss is going to be a problem. we all know how much walt needs to be in charge and he always has problems with his bosses. no one else thinks its a big deal that jesse has been shorted 5 mil.

I'm confused: Are you suggestion that Gus could be alive based on your interpretation of the scene or that Mike considers Tio Salamanca to be Gus' rightful killer? Haha

And I do think it's fair to wonder why Mike didn't kill Walt. It would have potentially protected a ton of people from being exposed, killed, etc., while doing nothing to prevent him from "getting out of Dodge" right afterward.
